games

but then they back off, and both sides play super passive again

final fight goes to Spirit, Jugg just doesn't scale good enough

im happyit went 5 games

they were super even

i do think in most of the games yatoro genuinely carried his team giga hard, he's genuinely (still) on another level

agreed

he's the player of the tournament for sure

game 5 also didn't have any super lucky/clutch plays on either side, it was a grind-it-out win for Spirit

game 1 genuinely was the most troll pure ego draft possible

but the other drafts were way more even

yeah that's what I read

I didn't see the draft

first pick ember on vision

so spirit picks slark (genuinely like one of the most disgusting matchups, ember loses 99% of the time)

so they put satanic/safelane on ember

to try to get a better midlane

firstpick ember with no slark ban is genuinely just ego

yeah that's bad

especially when ember isnt a mid that can

really succeed in safelane

I know people are going to shit on Puppy/Satanic for the Jugg pick (which I agree is dumb) but it's like you said before, they get so obsessed with this pick-counterpick thing, they don't pick to win

i think picking to win is so important

In game 5, if they pick TB 2nd to last, instead of the hoodwink

winning lane literally does not matter

they probably win

spirit got their second win from a last pick TB

and forcing their mid to go furion

with 0 games on furion

and they won it

because TB last pick was that good

bro bought drums first purchase

and just tped around

using drums

and they won

Morph would have also been a better last pick than Jugg

if they REALLY didn't want to pick a carry with their 4th pick

morph just isnt good rn

also

morph into

pango ls

They had last pick, and needed a carry who would outscale

u rather have a jug vs pango

they were 100% not playing for the midgame, they were playing to go late

they screwed themselves with their own bans

i think

probably not this late, but they set things up to protect Jugg and feed him kills and farm

i mean i also think

first pick invoker locks you into

a LOT

he led networth the entire game

they need to make other invoker builds viable

so he's not so predictable

I also won't shit on their hoodwink last game

even though, lmao another hoodwink L

because dukalis or w/e played them completely flawlessly

and if he didn't get turbo unlucky with omnislash bounces in the two early fights, very possibly they win

Did you stay up to watch Max

yea

peek the comments

I can't beleive first series ended at 12:00, and they didn't restart until 2AM

im glad spirit won

the 5 year old did not deserve a win

and fuck puppey

They were the better team

Immediately went to translate them too lol

i think vision was much more cohesive and had a stronger core strategy

but i think the carry diff made up for that

I saw people saying Jugg should've gotten aghs, but i havent watched the game yet

I like Puppey, but I hate celebrity coaches

puppey should go back to like

shitposting on streams

and losing like 16th

coaches should be no-name borring suits

who have stat degrees

not friendly mentor types

His comment after game 1 draft annoyed me

But he knew it was a cooked draft

ok, that's funny, the Darkseer almsot out GPM'd the lifestealer

he had a higher net
